HI I am haveing trouble adding or installing plugins to xbmc. I have downloaded an installer, but I can't figure how to use it.
I can't find where to drag and drop the plugins. I have looked in /usr/shre/xbmc. I have opened each of the folders and can find no place to drag and drop the plugins.
How do I get plugins installed. thanks tom-d
you can actually just copy them into the plugins/video folder.
the xbmc folder is hidden, so select to show hidden files and folders in nautilus
not all of these work, about 20% of them are having some sort of problem
if you can get xbmc into library mode then you can use the builtin scraper to get list out movie info
Thanks I finally have it working. You guys and gals are great. thaks tom_d
Hi, I'm having problems installing plugins for XBMC on my laptop which is running Ubuntu Karmic 9.10.
I have installed XBMC through the Ubuntu Software Centre - it works great. However, I have written 2 plugins for XBMC that work on my Xbox/XBMC but I can't get them to show up on my Ubuntu/XBMC.
I have tried copying the plugin's folders to home/.xbmc/plugins/video, as well as, /usr/share/xbmc/plugins/video - no joy though.
All I had to do to install plugins on Xbox/XBMC was copy the plugin's folders to e:/apps/xbmc/plugins/video and they showed up in video>plugins along with iPlayer, You Tube etc
One of the plugins I'm struggling with can be downloaded from here: http://www.box.net/xbmx-plug-ins
Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.

Ok, I have got the plugins to show up in XBMC. However the plugins don't run when selected in XBMC?!
I had to add the plugins folder as a source in:i.e. in the video section of the xml I had to add these linesCode:/home/username/.xbmc/userdata/sources.xml
so the file originally looked like thisCode:<source> <name>Video Plugins</name> <path pathversion="1">/home/username/.xbmc/plugins/video/</path> </source>
and now looks like thisCode:<sources> <programs> <default pathversion="1"></default> </programs> <video> <default pathversion="1"></default> </video> <music> <default pathversion="1"></default> </music> <pictures> <default pathversion="1"></default> </pictures> <files> <default pathversion="1"></default> </files> </sources>
Code:<sources> <programs> <default pathversion="1"></default> </programs> <video> <default pathversion="1"></default> <source> <name>Video Plugins</name> <path pathversion="1">/home/username/.xbmc/plugins/video/</path> </source> </video> <music> <default pathversion="1"></default> </music> <pictures> <default pathversion="1"></default> </pictures> <files> <default pathversion="1"></default> </files> </sources>
